From Myanmar to Montserrat
When travelling from Myanmar to Montserrat: Some of your Myanmar plug types fit in Montserrat (A, B, G). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage matches at 230V, so a basic plug adapter is enough for most devices. Frequency differs (50Hz → 60Hz). Modern phone and laptop chargers are usually fine, but some clocks, motors, and appliances may behave incorrectly.

Frequently asked questions
- Will my Myanmar plug work in Montserrat?
- Partly. Some of your Myanmar plug types (Type A, Type B, Type G) fit Montserrat sockets, but others do not. Bring a compact adapter for the rest.
- What plug type does Montserrat use?
- Montserrat uses Type A, Type B, Type G. The supply is 230V at 60Hz.
- Do I need a voltage converter for Montserrat when travelling from Myanmar?
- Montserrat runs on 230V, the same as Myanmar. Any charger that works at home will work there.
- Is the electrical frequency in Montserrat the same as Myanmar?
- Frequency in Montserrat is 60Hz, while Myanmar uses 50Hz. Modern phone and laptop chargers handle either, but clocks, motors, and some heating appliances may behave incorrectly.
